This headband, adorned with Swarovski crystals and designed by Bynum, was also worn on her wedding day and reportedly cost $6,000.
Bishop T.D. Jakes invited Bynum to attend one of his singles conferences in 1996, where she rose from attendee to speaker in two years. In 1998, Bynum preached "No More Sheets", a message about how to break free from the strongholds of sexual immorality.
That message catapulted her to national popularity among women (especially African-American women) and people in general.
